U.S. hotel results for week ending 31 October
Why this matters
Hospitality has separated by chain scale and demand segment, with luxury and resort outperforming and select-service holding pricing power on a leaner cost base. New construction starts remain at multi-decade lows, which has supported in-place RevPAR and made conversions of soft-branded flags an increasingly active part of transaction velocity. In Tampa, room-night demand continues to be driven by drive-to leisure and a measured recovery in group business, with hotel-grade land basis tight across submarkets. For sponsors with operational expertise, the sector continues to offer one of the more compelling income-plus-appreciation profiles available across CRE.
